Biography
Born, 1957 to Joseph Robert and Anna Lou (Williams) Taylor in South Bend, Indiana. Dad worked for Studebaker there.
The "home county" for both the Taylor and Williams lines is Warrick County, Indiana, and we moved back there in 1959..ish. I lived briefly in the Taylor "home town" of Newburgh before moving to the Warrick county seat of Boonville after my parent's divorce. Soon after, with my mom and step-father, Gibson County, Indiana was next, through the mid 1970's. We moved out of Indiana at that point, and although my mom and step-father would move back to Gibson County a few years later, I have not been in Indiana for more than a fews days since the mid-1980's. My mom and step-father retired to the Hoosier Valhalla also known as Florida in the early 1990's. My memories of Indiana are as an ideal place to grow up.
In my adult life, I am a bona-fide Mad Scientist [1] with a 40+ year career at various U.S. Government activities and Defense companies. Yes, I have a lair.[2] I am also a bass guitarist for garage bands you'll never hear..or want to.[3][4]
Genealogical Notes
After the first rush of Crowdsourcing on Ancestry.com, I've learned - re-learned, actually - an old maxim: If it isn't documented, it didn't happen. I am rebuilding my family tree here from first-principles: good documentation. My paternal grandmother, Martha Elizabeth (Jones) Taylor was a member of both the DAR and Mayflower Society. Her documented work on her Jones line is captured here. I am descended through her from Gideon Delano (American Revolution) and Richard Warren (Mayflower).
I will open up additional trees for more in-depth research on my mother's line and on my wife's family.

- ↑ Ok..it's a man cave..but it's loaded with technical wonderment.
- ↑ Four bass guitars, one nice electric six-string, a bass amp that can break windows at modest volume settings, synthesizers, mixers, the whole thing. See lair above. Said lair is a complete mess, by the way..but I know where everything in it is!

I am pleased to welcome you as a member of the WikiTree family. Your contributions will go a long way to joining the world’s trees together.
I would suggest starting with the New Member How-To pages, they will save you a lot of time and frustration.
Please add as much information as you can, with sources, as it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person. I hope you enjoy the site as much as I do.
Thank you for adding your DNA Test to your profile on WikiTree. Getting Started with DNA will tell you more about how DNA kits are used on WikiTree.
DNA at WikiTree provides a visual way for you to find others who have tested and have the potential of having common ancestors. To get the best results, you need to start with yourself and add sourced profiles for your ancestors until you can connect to existing profiles in WikiTree. 24 hours later, your test will have populated on the profiles of your ancestors and their descendants, where others with potential matches may also appear.
Have fun collaborating on your ancestors

P.S. If links do not work in an email from WikiTree, try them from the comment section on your profile page.
One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.
To be able to add names, you will need to upgrade. You can do this from your Upgrade page. Just answer the five questions, e.g. who you want to communicate with, if others can see your family tree, what surnames, locations, or topics interest you, etc, and click on the green box that says "Upgrade”.
Upgrading just means you will work on your ancestors to help us achieve our goal of joining all individual family trees into one global family tree.
I hope this helps! If you have any problems, let me know.
Take care
